Modern Black & White Pocketfold Invitations

Nicole and Arian had a classic black and white wedding with hot pink accents -- perfect for a summer wedding. Their invitations were a black metallic pocket fold in a square shape with white metallic paper for the cards, and a silver metallic card stock for the reception card.


We accented their design with hot pink crystals and a hot pink satin bellyband with a monogram accent:



Love that burst of color!


The invitations were mailed in black metallic envelopes with wrap around mailing labels:

Black Velvet Vegas Invitations

One of my favorite clients, Tiffany, asked me to design some swanky invitations for her husband's 30th birthday celebration in Las Vegas. 


We went with a black velvet book fold with a double layered metallic invitation:


The pocket on the left holds the travel info card & the rsvp postcard:


I love these Vegas inspired choices for the RSVP!


The invitation is a white metallic card with a black metallic backing (it's very subtle here):


Each invitation was wrapped with a printed band using the diamond "30" pattern:

All stacked up and ready to go!


The final invitations went into silver mailer envelopes with printed wrap around mailing labels:

Letterpress Chocolate Brown and Gold Invitations

Susan loved the look of Letterpress and wanted to use it for her wedding invitations. We used a rich chocolate brown ink on cream letterpress paper and paired it with a gold metallic accent card.



Each invitation featured a large "K" monogram that we carried throughout the stationery suite. A letterpressed bellyband wrapped around each invitation set and held all of the pieces together. The band features a lyric from a Bruce Springsteen song, a favorite of the bride and groom.



The invitation had an RSVP postcard, and a digitally printed directions card.


A close-up of the layers -- don't you just want to touch the paper?




Congratulations to Susan and Gary!

Stephen's Christening

Tiffany's son Stephen is being baptized at a small home ceremony before the birthday party. She wanted something that could be included in the box with the carnival birthday invitations and still go with the color scheme. I designed these after the invitations I created for my own son's christening.


These are trifolding invitations with a ribbon bellyband that slides off.... 
Each has a double-layered panel with charcoal linen and white linen cardstocks.


These went to just family and close friends and tucked right in
 with the RSVP postcard and accommodations cards.

God Bless Sophia

Chris contacted me in need of christening invitations for her daughter. She is using pink and brown in addition to a quilted pattern for the reception afterwards and wanted to incorporate all of those elements into the invitations. Here's the final design.


Double-layered invitation featuring a die-cut printed layer on off-white metallic with a quilted design border and a monogram at the top:



Satin ribbon bellyband with diecut monogram feature holds everything together:


 Light pink swarovski crystal adorns the monogram on the bellyband:


RSVP cards with matching metallic envelopes incorporate the quilted pattern:







These would also be wonderful for wedding invitations, birthday invitations, and baby or bridal shower invitations!
